HydroAS - 2D Hydrodynamic Simulation Model

Hydrodynamic Flow & Transport Modeling

HydroAS offers a wide range of applications in hydrodynamic river and costal simulation as well as urban flash flood modeling. It is based on the numerical solution of the shallow water equations using the Finite-Volume-Method. With additional modules for bed load transport up to 12 grain dimensions, wash load and pollution / heat transport can be applied. Highly transient processes, such as in the case of dam break wave propagation, can be successfully simulated.
